Description

Fascinating marine life arthropods that predate dinosaurs, the Horseshoe Crab Folkmanis hand puppet comes alive in your hand. This unique creature also known as a “living fossil” is more related to scorpions and spiders than crustaceans and is often used in medical testing due to a special enzyme in their bright blue blood. Rendered in suede cloth with pine needle fringe and a stiff tail, this 2-finger glove puppet will motivate a curiosity to explore the natural world.

Did you know that the horseshoe crab is a “living fossil,” having remained largely unchanged for 450 million years? Its blue blood is used in medicine to detect bacteria on medical devices. Interestingly, horseshoe crabs are more closely related to spiders and scorpions than to true crabs.
